It has been my vision to create an organization that supports and enhances the lives of individuals. The Healthy Being mission is to provide simplified solutions to wellness in a natural format. I chose to create a professional environment that embodies and is rooted in passion, health, wellness and a natural balance.
I spent the first part of my professional career traveling and teaching internationally. The next phase of my career honed my skills towards business development, relationship management, market planning & sales projections, financial & operational reorganization and sales/service delivery team recruiting, training and development.I walked away from this phase with a profound insight that my mission and purpose is to help others through natural and alternative medicine.
There are two distinct instances occured that lead me to my current path.
In the spring of 2003, I became extremely ill. I can remember waking up on a Sunday morning and not being able to get up; I just could not get out of bed. The same happened every morning for about a week. Three months from that one Sunday morning I was diagnosed with an acute case of mononucleosis, chronic fatigue ,a malfunctioning thyroid and I also had lost alot of weight. To put in plainly, I was a mess. I went from being a very lively and super active, athletic individual to one who was falling asleep at work and could nap all day on a Sunday.
As a result of these illnesses, my body was in very poor shape and I began turning to a wide assortment of alternative therapies to treat my taxed immune system and gain back some weight to further support my efforts. I began reading everything I could get my hands on that pertained to the intricacies of the body and the immune system and was greatly inspiried by individuals like Dr. Weill,Dr. Teitelbaum, Louise Hay, Deepak Chopra, Lorna Vanderhaeghe, Dr. Mincolla and others who approached health and wellness from varying perspectives. In 2006 I dedicated time to pursue a Masters in Holistic Nutrition and am currently completing a Doctorate in Naturopathy.
With my improved health, friends, family and colleagues began seeking out my expertise to address various health concerns and ailments. They had witnessed my transformation and desired to experience similar, positive changes. In the winter of 2007, I began working with a friend and colleague who was experiencing extreme work-related stress, adrenal burnout and low energy levels. After an initial assessment, I suggested a program that would address her stress levels and promote her cardiovascular health. About two months later she experienced a massive heart attack and her cardiologist expressed that whatever program she was on prior to the attack made a significant impact in decreasing the damage of the attack on her heart muscle. A few days later she came into my office, told me about her situation and declared I needed to pursue this as a viable career. I'll never forget that day- later that night I wrote out the business plan and model for Healthy Being, LLC and have not looked back since.
I am passionate about helping individuals, companies, families and children focus on enhancing their health and wellness. Phone and email consults are availble to identify ways to promote a healthier and happier being.
